I bought a Lincoln!

Before you criticize about her being big and boxy (which she is), let me explain. She’s got a pretty red paint job, though that isn't why I bought her. It’s true she doesn’t corner that well, since she’s a bit top-heavy with a narrow wheelbase. I’ll just take the corners cautiously. She’s equipped with digital gages, so I always know exactly how fast she’s going and how much power she’s putting down. She has a nice generously sized glove box. I bought her at auction, so I didn’t get her owners manual or maintenance records. I gassed her up yesterday and fired her up for the first time. Wow! Really nice idle and plenty of power when I need it. Nice and smooth. I cleaned up her paint as best I could, but she is used and shows it. I had to make room for her in the garage. No, I won’t be storing the Camaro outdoors. For the time being Debra has to park the Volvo outside.
